Description Robert 2024-02-25 02:21:00 UTC
SUMMARY
tried submitting a bug for what i would logically call "widgets". its probably a daughter part of a bigger program but because i am not a developer i have no clue what to call it other than widgets. 
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. not be a developer 
2. have a problem with widgets
3. cant find the right application on the website because there is no search facility. 

OBSERVED RESULT
a frustrated user. 

EXPECTED RESULT
a slightly less frustrated user. 

IDEAS
1)update website with search functionality. 
2)add a settings page in kde-plasma that handles bug reports. (it could even have an eye dropper tool, so you can select the app that your having problems with. )

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 Nate Graham 2024-02-26 21:23:46 UTC
There is a search feature. However "widgets" is a very broad term that means different things in different contexts, so even if you searched for that, I'm not sure you'd have gotten great results.

When you're not sure where to put a bug report, use the "I don't know" category and bug triagers will move it to the appropriate place. There are also various "report a bug" buttons and menu items sprinkled throughout KDE apps and Plasma.
